I would disagree. Consumer products are neither designed nor expected to be 100% reliable. You could say there should be NO dropped calls or cut-outs during normal operation of a mobile network but nobody returns a phone because it drops one or two calls every year.

You don't. Nobody does. UDP is not used for downloading.*

I challenge you to find *any* internet service in the world that has zero packet loss at any time.
